EMA supports the private school enrollment journey annually by providing SSAT, SAO, and Character Skills Snapshot fee waivers, in addition to our equity test kit program.
If you are fortunate enough to be able to help others on their enrollment journey, please support the fee waiver program to ensure our assessments and services are available to all students.
